ance may cause damage.
If the dishwasher is installed
above or below other domestic
appliances, follow the informa-
tion on installation in combina-
tion with a dishwasher in the in-
stallation instructions for the in-
dividual appliances.
If there is no information or if the
installation instructions do not in-
clude the relevant information,
contact the manufacturer of
these appliances to check that
the dishwasher can be installed
above or below these appli-
ances.
If no information is available

ances.
To ensure the safe operation of
all domestic appliances, con-
tinue following the installation in-
structions for the dishwasher.
Do not install the dishwasher un-
der a hob.
Do not install the dishwasher
near heat sources, e.g. radiat-
ors, heat storage tanks, ovens
or other appliances that gener-
ate heat.
¡ Modified or damaged water hoses
may result in material damage and
damage to the appliance.
Never kink, crush, modify or cut
through water hoses.
Only use the water hoses sup-
plied with the appliance or genu-
ine spare hoses.
Never re-use water hoses that
have been used before.
¡ If the water pressure is too high or
too low, this may impair function-
ing of the appliance.
Make sure that the water pres-
sure in the water supply system
is min. 50kPa (0,5bar) and
max. 1000kPa (10bar).
If the water pressure exceeds
the maximum value specified, a
pressure-reducing valve must be
installed between the drinking
water connection and the hose
set of the appliance.

reusable materials properly.
Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environ-

Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Use the Eco Wash programme.
The Eco Wash programme is en-
ergy-efficient and environmentally
friendly.

Change the sensor setting to the de-
fault.
Consumption is reduced.
→"Sensors", Page13
AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical meas-
uring device (light barrier) which
measures the turbidity of the rinsing
water. You can save water with the
AquaSensor.
Use of the AquaSensor depends on
the programme. If the soiling level is
high, the rinsing water is drained off
and replaced with fresh water. If the
soiling level is lower, the rinsing wa-
ter is used in the next wash cycle, so
reducing water consumption by 3-6
litres. In the automatic programmes
the temperature and run time are ad-
ditionally adjusted to the level of soil-
ing.
Sensors
The sensors adjust the programme
sequence and strength in the auto-
matic programmes depending on the
level and type of soiling.
The sensor has different sensitivity
settings that can be changed in the
basic settings.
Sensor setting Description
SE:00 Optimum setting for a
mixed load and heavily
soiled tableware. Saves
both energy and water.
SE:01 Adjusts the programme
strength for effective re-
moval of food remnants
even with low soiling
levels. Energy and water
consumption are adjusted
accordingly.
SE:02 Adjusts the programme
strength for difficult condi-
tions of use, e.g. stubborn
dried-on food remnants.
Recommended setting
when using organic or eco-
logical detergents contain-
ing low levels of active
agents. Energy and water
consumption are adjusted
accordingly.
